Contributing sentiments towards policy:
45% :Iran has seized at least five commercial vessels in Middle Eastern waters over the past two years, the US Navy said Thursday.44% : It remains unclear why the IRGC would seize the vessel, though it appeared to mark the latest move in recent years' quiet contest over fuel shipments involving Iran.
33% :The United States has accused Iran of a series of maritime attacks on commercial vessels in the Middle East, most recently a series of drone strikes on ships linked to Israeli owners.
10% : The contestation over fuel shipping ramped up after the Donald Trump administration withdrew from the 2015 nuclear deal with Tehran and enacted "maximum pressure" sanctions on Iran in 2018 and designated the IRGC a terrorist organization.
